Chapter 171 Status
Chen Mengxi agreed with Ah and nodded, "That's right, it's too exaggerated... It's very likely that someone will be promoted and blame the values..."
"Of course, you can explain that the original work is written like this..."
"I can also understand why you shoot like this. It is full of luxury elements, but it does not mean absolute materialism. You can say that the overall environment of this story is a world of rich people. It is just a setting, and it is a bit exaggerated to the level of values. There is no problem in filming costume dramas in the royal palace, but when filming in the small era, there is a problem in filming rich people in modern metropolis, which is money?"
"But...the mainstream audience is not your fans, they can't feel deeply about your movie..."
"That's all..."
Lu Xiaoran quickly asked his most concerned question: "Then do you think this movie has a box office?"
"…Don't worry, fans must buy this movie. In my opinion, 300 million is the basic line, maybe it can exceed 500 million!"
"That's good!"
He and Guo Jingming immediately smiled happily...
For them, it’s better if there are people watching, don’t worry about the big and small eras…
As for yelling and accusing, Guo Jingming is still afraid of these things?
...
"Tiny Times" was released on the 27th. After watching the internal preview, Chen Mengxi and Zhang Yi continued to discuss "The Great Wall 2"...
The world view is constant, the shadowless army, Taotie, imperial power, and three very balanced relationships.
If the Shadowless Army is too strong and has no external troubles, it will be suspicious of the emperor!
This web drama has been told in detail.
"If you want to introduce several other ferocious beasts, you have to add settings... Otherwise, it is not good to let them appear directly!"
“How to add?”
"I haven't thought about it yet... Anyway, the second and third parts are coherent. The second parts are humans retreat step by step, and survivors go to find the legendary dragon..."
“…”
Chen Mengxi smiled: "No hurry to find a few experts to sort out the origin of the ferocious beast... Director, Shanghai Film Festival, are you going?"
"I won't go, I have to prepare for "The Great Wall 2"..."
"come on…"
In fact, the setting that Chen Mengxi wanted to add is that the "Four Great Divine Beasts" Qinglong, White Tiger, Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird are the bright side in the myth, and the dark side that echoes it is the legendary "Four Great Beasts" Chaos, Qiongqi, Baiwu and Taotie.
Taotie, transformed by human greed, what are the other three evil spirits, Chaos, Qiongqi, and Baiwu? I haven't thought about it yet...
But if this is set, what does this movie have to do with the Great Wall?
Forget it, let’s give the screenwriters a headache. Anyway, Chen Mengxi’s requirements not only reflect the national war of resistance, but also have more monsters...
...
"The Unusual Detective", "Superman" failed to stop the pace of "The Great Wall" winning streak...
At least in the domestic market.
Overseas market…
Of course, "Superman" dominates, but "The Great Wall" is not vulnerable. You are like Colombia and Russia. Except for "Superman" won the box office championship in the first weekend, after entering the working day, "The Great Wall" actually surpassed it!
Let me briefly talk about "Superman Body of Steel"...
In fact, Superman is not easy to shoot. Because it is very well-known, the general public has a good understanding of Superman's basic personality. They are powerful, can fly, and have a very kind heart. They are like a big boy scout, a good old man, and often save the world.
But with the changes of the times, this stereotype has become a disadvantage that is not conducive to the development of the role.
He is so perfect!
But a "perfect" hero is not popular under the current trend.
So it was changed to a ball rape who betrayed his own planet in order to save the earth...
The opponent also became his own tribe member.
All kinds of demolition of buildings throughout the process...
I saw a very interesting film review: If you still have a brain to watch this kind of movie, wouldn’t it be over if you enjoy it? Five Stars!
Then why are you so harsh about your own movies?
Back to "The Great Wall", this movie has broken the box office record of domestic films (co-production is also considered domestic films). As of the 25th, the overseas performance was US$240 million, and the mainland box office has exceeded 1.8 billion. Together, the world has exceeded US$500 million...
It is temporarily ranked sixth in the world, second to "Iron Man 3", "Fast and Furious 6", "Monster University", "Despicable 2", "Crazy Primitive Man"…
The media wants to give Chen Mengxi'an the title of the number one person in Chinese films...
But Pi, which is also known as Li Mi, has a global total of 609 million, which is still more than "The Great Wall"...
You said "Pi" is a foreign movie?
Then "The Great Wall" is still a co-production!
"The Great Wall broke the record of "Walking with God" and became the most popular domestic film!"
"The Great Wall won the championship, and "Walking with God" posted a poster to congratulate you!"
"The box office of "The Great Wall" exceeded 1.8 billion, helping to over 500 million US dollars worldwide, and the king of domestic movies was born!"
Various reports...
Print media, online platforms, including TV programs, major news...
"News Broadcast" gave another minute to tell the box office miracle of "The Great Wall", and gave a close-up of Chen Mengxi fifteen seconds:
"Actually, the East and the West are learning from each other. When I watch some Western movies, I can feel more and more about their importance to Eastern culture. If Chinese movies want to go out, they should not only learn the strengths of Western movies, but more importantly, don't lose Chinese traditional culture.
We have a long and rich history. If we can integrate our traditional culture into the film, I think it will not only benefit our descendants, but also have a great impact on the world."
"The Great Wall is just the first step. In the future, we will unswervingly make Chinese films in the direction of industrialization!"
After this wave of publicity, "The Great Wall", which has already declined in enthusiasm for watching movies, has once again ushered in a new wave of movie viewing.
Many middle-aged and elderly viewers who usually don’t live in cinemas have entered the cinemas…
Pulling a large number of non-reserve audiences!
For a moment, the whole people were discussing Chen Mengxi...
Then I found out that this person is really the real version of the innocent heart!
The so-called innocent heart means 'This world is bad, let's make it better together', and he is not the same as the erotic bitches in the entertainment industry and the big guys in the capital industry...
There is no gossip, such as the Haitian Festival and the Super Car Club, which has nothing to do with him!
What is this called?
I have already realized that the world is great, but I still pity the green grass and trees!
Ji Huifu, the first loyal fan of Chen Mengxi, posted a Weibo post @Chen Mengxi: 'The reason we chose to do something is not because it can bring us any benefits, but because it is right.'
Chen Mengxi is very ashamed...
He just wants to make money...
Of course, the income from the right way to manage.
As for the unspoken rules, there is no chance. There are objective conditions that do not allow, and physical conditions do not allow...
But there are also disadvantages. The audience's expectations for Chen Mengxi have increased, and the expectations for "Great Wall 2" have also increased...
Standing at the high point of reputation, you really can't tolerate any mistakes...
Therefore, Chen Mengxi did not continue to direct "The Great Wall 2"!
By the way, he is here at the Shanghai Film Festival this year...
Chapter completed!
